Chapter Eighty-Seven: Looking at the Wind and the Moon [5]
Xu Yuqing's face was hot when she said it, and she glanced at Zhu Yan complainingly, "Cousin Yan just likes to make fun of people." He rolled his eyes and let all the maids around him retreat, then he looked at Zhu Yan and smiled evilly, "I heard my father say that the son from the capital is going to marry his cousin, and when the time comes, I will see if you will make fun of me!" β
Zhu Yan smiled slightly, after all, she was from modern times, and she felt that there was no need for her to take it to heart with just a verbal promise, but such words could not be spoken, so she just said lightly: "It's just a joke from Yuan Gongzi, I'm a peasant girl, I want money or nothing, I want power, how can a big family like the capital really look down on me?" β
Shu frowned slightly, and looked at Zhu Yan with a light smile, "I think that son is not a person who does not believe in his word...... However, since Miss Zhu came to diagnose her sister's pulse, it is better to cross the bright road of the child in the womb first. β
"Not bad." Zhu Yan nodded with a smile, and instructed Xu Yuqing to still sit down, first put his right hand on the table, and pressed it gently, the pulse under the finger beat strongly, giving people a particularly fluent and mellow feeling, it is indeed a typical slippery pulse.
Zhu Yan asked Xu Yuqing to change his left hand again, and also meditated for a while, making sure that they were all signs of health, and then he looked up and asked, "How old is this child?" β
"Three months old." Shu nodded affirmatively, and the tips of his good-looking eyebrows twisted into a knot, they have only been married for more than a month, and when they give birth in the future, I am afraid that they will not be able to hide the truth.
ββ¦β¦ And cut off two months first, and when you give birth in the future, you will only say that the number of months is not enough, and it will be born prematurely? Zhu Yan was a little nervous in her heart, whether it was out of good intentions or not, as a doctor, it was always not enough to act like this, she was a little faintly worried, would she fall deeper and deeper into this situation in the future?
"That's fine." Shu's expression eased slightly, and he smiled, "At that time, I will invite some people who are tight-mouthed, but I'm afraid I will have to bother Miss Zhu to come too." β
Zhu Yan bowed his head, "I am willing." β
Shu stood up, dressed as a salute, and bowed deeply, "The grace of the girl, I am grateful in my heart." β
Zhu Yan was a little curious, although this matter is not good-looking, but in the end it is just a ** rhyme, now that the two have become married, even if they really make trouble, at most it will be a bad look on the faces of the two families, and they will end up gossiping in the future, and they will help hide it, and it will not be a "big favor".
Shu saw her doubts, hesitated for a moment, and told Xu Yuqing to go to rest, and he took Zhu Yan all the way to a separate small building in the backyard.
Pushing open the door, Zhu Yan couldn't help but be stunned, this small building, the outside looks ordinary, but the decoration inside is extremely gorgeous, and there is a luxury that can't be hidden.
"Miss Zhu didn't expect it, right? This is my house, called Liufang Building. There was a smile on Shu Jiaohao's face, but there was a desolate look at the corner of her eyebrows, "In the past, the place where I lived was called Liufang Palace......"
Zhu Yan came back to his senses, looked at the furnishings in the room curiously, and when he heard Shu say this, he could indeed clearly feel that there was a palace nobility everywhere here, and he hesitated for a moment, and spoke carefully, "Miss Shu...... Why are you suing me about this? "There is no doubt that she is the princess of the previous dynasty, but as long as she doesn't admit it in front of herself, Yuan Rin will ask again in the future, and Zhu Yan can continue to pretend not to know, but now......
"Twelve years ago, the imperial capital was broken by rebels, and the father entrusted his young son to the most trusted courtier to take him to Jiangnan, and the rest of the princesses and concubines were all killed...... But he didn't want that man to pity me when I was young, so he smuggled me out of the palace together. Shu's voice was gentle and gentle, even when he talked about the tragedy of the destruction of these countries, he still maintained an elegant expression on his face.
"The man...... Is it my father? Zhu Yan suppressed the uneasiness in her heart, and always felt that she would say something more amazing.
"It's Uncle Ju." Shu smiled faintly, and his eyes fell on Zhu Yan, with a complicated expression, "But my father only told him to leave Beijing with Brother Jing at that time, and after learning that I was also taken away, he will definitely send someone to take me back to the capital to die...... Uncle Zhu thought that he had been taken out of the palace, and that he would not let me go back to my death, so he disguised his daughter of the same age as me, and I took it with me as his daughter, and escaped the search of the visitors. β
Zhu Yan shook her head in disbelief, her daughter of the same age ...... I am the same age as Shu, did I replace Shu with myself in the first place? So how did you come to Jiangnan?
"It's Aunt Silk Zhen who can't bear to die on your behalf at a young age, and take you to Jiangnan with a lot of hardships......" Shu lowered his head slightly and looked at Zhu Yan apologetically, "But your mother and daughter are almost sleeping in the open, you have a fever all the way, and finally arrived in Jiangnan to join us, and you have forgotten most of the things, only the talent and etiquette are still the same as what you learned at home before." β
"So that's ......" Zhu Yan nodded lightly, no wonder Xu Suzhen has always had no doubt that she lied about her amnesia, it turned out that Zhu Yan really had amnesia due to high fever, which is really a coincidental thing in the world.
"Sister Yan......" Shu's eyebrows were very soft, "Can I call you like this?" β
Zhu Yan blinked and nodded with a smile, "If Miss Shu is willing to recognize me as a sister, it is really a great honor for Zhu Yan." β
"My sister laughed, I'm just an ordinary woman now, you can't ask for it regardless of your previous suspicions, how dare you make people feel honored?" He pulled her to sit down on the delicate couch, looking up at the utensils and embroidered curtains around her, "Except for my sister, no one has ever been here, not even Brother Jing...... What is his own background? β
"Why don't you sue him?" Zhu Yan was slightly stunned, took out a little tea in his hand, and hurriedly wiped it with a handkerchief.
Shu still had a gentle smile on his face, his chin was slightly raised, as if he was thinking about something, "Brother Jing was just two years old at the time, and he didn't remember anything after he arrived in Jiangnan...... Nothing......" Shu's bright eyes gradually lowered, "I don't want to lie to him, and I can't tell him the truth...... Until one day, he never asked againβperhaps he had the answer in his mind. β
Zhu Yan pondered for a moment, "Sister Shu is still looking for a chance to have a good talk with Jing Gongzi, right?" Zhu Yan was quite unimpressed with her way of teaching children, but she was just a child at that time, and it was good that she didn't lose her temper when asked about these sad things, and Zhu Yan was embarrassed to criticize her.
